Tracy, Danny, & Michelle;
I'm so sorry for your loss. Your dad was a good man & took care of y'all. I remember your dad riding all of us kids around in the bed of his truck & hitting every bump & pothole he could. We just laughed & laughed. We would play ghosts in the graveyard & he would sit at the window making sure we were ok. Great memories & good times.
Sending y'all hugs & prayers for peace & comfort.
